April offers a series of night-sky highlights, starting with the full Pink Moon on April 1, named for early spring blooms rather than its color. The Lyrid meteor shower follows on April 21-22, marking the first major meteor display since January, with up to 20 meteors per hour visible before dawn. International Dark Sky Week, April 13-20, encourages stargazing and awareness of light pollution. On April 22, the crescent moon will appear beside Jupiter in the western sky, with Venus and Orion also visible. These events provide prime opportunities for astronomy enthusiasts and casual skywatchers alike. https://www.accuweather.com/en/space-news/april-brings-back-to-back-astronomy-events-including-1st-meteor-shower-since-january/1876519
